BSI reviews

Management is more concerned with time spent at your desk than the quality of work that gets done. The motto here is “everyone is replaceable,” this is instilled throughout management and is the president's favorite phrase. As an employee in this company, one should feel comfortable going to HR for support on any issue, here they merely create a facade of caring and support—instead they're more concerned with their reputation. The turnover rate here is incredibly high because people are constantly leaving as well as getting fired. The salaries here are quite low compared to the rest of the market, also large increases/promotions are a rare find here. It is very difficult to move positions once you're here, especially if you're trying to achieve a higher position. Also, there is no recognition here for going above and beyond, while it's true that people shouldn't need motivation to do a great job, it definitely helps the morale of a place if the managers acknowledge the great work that their teams are doing.

The job can really be made or broken by the skill, enthusiasm and support of line management. There is tremendous pressure on work-life balance and the support that you receive on this can make all the difference. There has been a shift in senior management attitudes and this is now starting to filter down the business. However, if you are someone who likes to perform above average, it is quite difficult to find the time to dot every i and cross every t.
